Blackpool Tower and Winter Gardens Program
Blackpool Tower and Winter Gardens souvenir programmes,
particularly rare 1940s wartime editions, often featured 8–12 pages
of thin paper, costing around 3d, and sometimes included wartime
notices alongside entertainment listings. These historical booklets
detailed performances like the Candy Town Carnival, ballets, and
movies such as Rebecca.
These programmes serve as valuable historical artefacts, illustrating
the vast choice of entertainment that was available.
Blackpool was indisputably the most popular seaside resort in the
UK, famously acting as the "playground of the North" for industrial
workers from Lancashire and Yorkshire. It dominated with iconic
attractions like the Tower (opened 1894), pleasure beaches, and
immense, illuminated promenades that catered to hundreds of
thousands of visitors
